Our Music Library is a third-party music player for your own self-hosted Navidrome or Subsonic (OpenSubsonic) server. It requires a server you already run and includes no music of its own — Our Music Library simply plays the library you already have, and makes it feel at home on your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. BUILT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY - Give each person their own profile. Everyone sees their own library plus a shared library the whole household can enjoy. - On a shared iPhone or iPad, an optional profile picker lets whoever picked up the device choose who's listening. - The settings that matter — the server, the profiles, and Server Admin — sit behind Face ID or a passcode, out of little hands. - Server Admin (on Navidrome servers) lets a parent add family accounts, change a password, and choose which libraries each person can see, right from the app. YOUR LIBRARY, ORGANIZED - Browse by Artists, Albums, Genres, Songs, Playlists, Favorites, and Recently Added. - Search across artists, albums, and songs. - Open any album to see its full track list and artwork. - Tap the heart to favorite a song; build, rename, and reorder your own playlists. A PLAYER YOU'LL ENJOY - A bold, colorful design with sticker-style artwork, and seven app icons to choose from. - A full-screen player with a play queue, shuffle, and repeat. - A sleep timer that fades the music out at bedtime. - A mini-player stays with you while you keep browsing. ON YOUR WRIST - Our Music Library for Apple Watch keeps music on the watch itself, so it plays on AirPods with no phone nearby and no network at all — made for a kid's watch. - Choose what to keep on the watch from the iPad or iPhone: Save to Watch on any album, playlist, or song. The watch copies it over your home Wi-Fi. - Pick standard (128 kbps) or original quality. - A parent can turn watch sync on or off for the whole device. PLAYS THE WAY YOU LISTEN - Streams over your own network. - Keeps playing in the background. - Full Lock Screen and Control Center controls. - AirPlay to your speakers, Apple TV, and other devices. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - Stores only your server login, kept in the iOS Keychain. Watch sync uses your own iCloud account to carry the login and the keep-on-watch list between your devices — nothing is sent to us. - No ads. No tracking. No analytics. No accounts to create. - Your music and your server stay yours. WHAT YOU'LL NEED Our Music Library connects to a Navidrome or Subsonic (OpenSubsonic) server that you host yourself. If you don't already run one, this app won't have anything to play. Point it at your server, sign in, and your library is ready. The Apple Watch app needs watchOS 26 and, to copy music, Wi-Fi that can reach your server. Our Music Library is an independent app and is not affiliated with the Navidrome or Subsonic projects.

About

Streamless Music

Streamless Music puts the library you built on your Mac in your pocket, synced over your own Wi-Fi, played entirely offline, owned entirely by you. No cloud. No account. No subscription. Your music never touches a server, because there isn't one. HOW IT WORKS Streamless Music is the companion to Streamless for Mac, the app for people who rip their CDs, keep their own files, and sync them to the devices they love. Open the app on your iPhone, and your Mac spots it on your network like any other device. Pick the albums and playlists you want, hit Sync, and the music transfers straight from your Mac. Files, artwork, playlists, everything. WHAT IT DOES • Plays fully offline — airplane mode, subway, middle of nowhere. It's all local files. • Every format your library holds, including FLAC and Apple Lossless. • The classic EQ — Bass Booster, Rock, Small Speakers, Spoken Word, and the rest of the list you remember from your iPod's Settings menu. • Playlists flow both ways. Make one on your iPhone and it lands in your Mac library on the next sync. Edit anywhere; the newest change wins. • Plays and ratings sync back too — listen and rate on the go, and your Mac library keeps the score. • A Home Screen widget with playback controls. • CarPlay — your playlists, albums, and artists on the dash. • An Apple Watch remote with transport, volume, ratings, and a sleep timer. WHAT IT DOESN'T DO No streaming. No recommendations. No ads. No telemetry. No "sign in to continue." Streamless Music plays the music you own, and that's the whole idea. GOOD TO KNOW Streamless Music syncs from Streamless for Mac (macOS 14 or later) — download it at streamless.app with a full-featured 14-day free trial, no card required. One $19 purchase covers everything; this app is free. Your music. Your machine. Your rules.
